About this product

Product Information

You may have watched hundreds of episodes of The Simpsons (and its sister show Futurama) without ever realising that they contain enough maths to form an entire university course. In The Simpsons and Their Mathematical Secrets, Simon Singh explains how the brilliant writers, some of the mathematicians, have smuggled in mathematical jokes throughout the cartoon's twenty-five year history, exploring everything from to Mersenne primes, from Euler's equation to the unsolved riddle of P vs. NP, from perfect numbers to narcissistic numbers, and much more. With wit, clarity and a true fan's zeal, Singh analyses such memorable episodes as 'Bart the Genius' and 'Homer(3)' to offer an entirely new insight into the most successful show in television history.

Always happy with the Nile's service. Whilst dispatch can take longer than others, books are sourced at a great price from locations worldwide and from prior experience I know to order in advance. I ordered three expensive textbooks for uni, two weeks later they were dispatched and the next day received - all earlier than expected timeframe. Packaged very well, books intact. Great seller, updated tracking and items as described. A+++

It was hard to follow the package since the shipping company gives too few status information. Arrived two days after target. Beside that, seller was real quick to respond questions, more than fair price, shipping cost were good, condition and package were perfect. Seller went beyond expected as a after sail service when questioned about transit status. Would I buy again from The_Nile ? Absolutely!!! very very happy!!! Thanks again!

  • He did not put it down until he had finished reading it!!!

    My husband loves mathematics and is a fan of the Simpsons. A friend recommended the book to him, so I ordered it. It arrived about 3:00pm in the afternoon. He immediately picked it up to look at and finally put it down about 1:00am when he had finished it. He said it was excellent and certainly chuckled a lot while reading it. He is very happy with it, and is now reading bits again...and again ...and again. That's easy to do as each chapter relates to an episode. As the title suggests its about Mathematics and The Simpsons so if you are not interested in either of those it might not be the ideal choice.
